BEING AUTHENTIC IN A WORLD OF LIES AND FALSEHOOD.

There is a power in being so fully yourself that you rediscover your natural way of being. That is what happened to me. From being someone who was cut off from his emotions, struggling with addictions and suppressed anger, I went through a total spiritual transformation. It took years, and it burned up everything in me that was false. It was total, and i gave myself totally to it, even though it hurt like hell.

And I believe this transformation is available for each of us. The reward for going willingly into one's pain and darkness is metamorphosis of the kind indescribable to the uninitiated. It is something like a rebirth. For me it was like my star went supernova, and I have never recovered, nor do I want to. And it unleashed my creativity and joy.

And life offers each of us this invitation in each moment: To Open Fully or Close Completely. What do you choose?Welcome to my world.

In this video - Kavi plays one of his songs "Courting the Beloved" at the 5-day Immersion at Light on the Hill Retreat Center in upstate New York, recorded August 2018.

I lived with major chronic illness for over 10 years.Fifteen years later I am immensely grateful to the experience.It played a huge part in my coming to consciousness.It brought me to humility, tenderness and wisdom.It forced me to look at the whole of me and let go of what was causing tightness or stress on the system. It demanded I pay attention to what and how I digested the world, from the food I was eating, to what and how I was emotionally digesting my experiences, past and present.

The first thing I want to explain is that I am not claiming ‘awakening’ has happened to me as some badge of reaching the exalted destination. I’m not actually that interested in the theory of awakening, or of who awakens and who doesn’t, or all the stuff that currently goes around the (particularly) non dual circuit.

Even as an awakened man, even as a strong and clear seeing, powerful man in my own right, I choose to defer to her as the teacher and lead voice. I choose to throw my entire being behind her as the main teacher, willingly and consciously, occasionally with difficulty but always with awareness.

A long as you imagine there is a door that leads to a separate room you are still stuck in self and in separation. The belief is thus: The solution to your problem lies outside you and you are incomplete and there is a part of you somewhere or an answer somewhere that will complete you.

When we deny old emotions and/or present difficult feelings we put an increased stress on our body, on our nervous system, immune system, and important organs like heart and thyroid, and our brain. Whether that actually ’causes’ illness or not is academic, because the bottom line is it really doesn’t help.

If you have chosen the path of natural healing, for whatever reason, and you have found yourself stumbling in the dark, getting lost, going up blind alleys, being scared, or being disappointed, thinking you have found an answer only to be foiled, I have some news for that will challenge you and support you.

What I am suggesting is that the body is a reflection of consciousness and personality. It stores all the stories we have had, all the dramas of our life, and all the things we could not process during our childhood, youth or adulthood.
